Hi. I'm afraid that I really screwed up and for that I must apologize. You see, I posted here about a pack I picked up at a Dollar Tree from the questionable people at Cards One for sheer comedic value (and because it fit within the mission of this blog.) What I did not expect is to read, several times over, about people's own experiences in buying these horrible repack "packs" and what shenanigans they found within. There was, however, another series of packs that this company is also pushing at the dollar stores and I will reveal one of these packs' contents right now. I am hopeful that this will cause everyone to keep far, far away from this stuff. I already have something like 25,000 cards like this to get rid of, after all. The last thing I need is more junk!
Click on the image above to see the stated odds for whatever you're supposed to get in these things. It's laughable.
1988 Topps - 179 - Charlie Puleo
1989 Donruss - 387 - Junior Ortiz
1990 Score - 142 - Dickie Thon
1992 Topps - 435 - Mark Eichhorn
1992 Topps - 434 - Wally Backman
1988 Topps - 634 - Jose DeLeon
1992 Fleer - 495 - Daryl Boston
1992 Fleer - 494 - Tim Wallach (These are probably the first two 1992 Fleer cards I've ever scanned.)
1990 Donruss - 351 - Jeff Reed
1990 Donruss - 591 - Tom Pagnozzi
1992 Donruss - 248 - Mel Hall
1998 Upper Deck - 191 - Kevin Polcovich (I've never heard of this guy and this is easily the best card in the pack.)
1992 Donruss - 445 - Joe Grahe
1992 Donruss - 448 - John Marzano
1992 Studio - 51 - Bret BarberieI'm accepting any and all guesses as to which card is the 1-per-pack "Historic Star Card".
For a slightly different take, I did unwittingly by a box (not a repack!) from this company recently which I will share on my blog soon. They're not completely evil.
